Best firmware to fix signal fluctuations? - Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers

Hello guys, Im using Jio as my primary sim and getting poor signals in most areas with frequent fluctuations, can someone suggest a good firmware to fix this issue?

Port out. It's only issue with Jio.
I use Airtel and Vodafone on 4G and the signal doesn't go down like Jio. I don't think any firmware can fix it. I'm on latest developer firmware. Test yourself, use any other network sim on 4G in your phone and see if the signals fluctuate.

I dont think so, I tested with Voda too it was stable (only Volte 4G signal is unstable) but on MIUI it is great

Use CAF based ROMs like AOSiP or CitrusCAF to get accurate signal representations.
Other roms too get the same signal strength but they're misrepresented.

If you can, check the speedtest on both MIUI and custom rom. It'll be same. Atleast, that's the case with me when I started using MIUI and than moved to custom roms. I think MIUI fake signals where as the stock roms give you the real picture. That's why people think the signal is stable in MIUI roms. That's my opinion.
I''ll never go back to MIUI rom else I would've tested it myself today.
BTW: signal is based on MHz and JIO is not stable as of now. This is why Vodafone is working fine for you. JIO fails most of the time cause they are still not prepared with network, I don't think Volte has any role in that.

Dropping calls

Hello my phone is dropping calls very frequently (when someone calls me the operator says I don't have network).In my phone the signal is OK with 4 bars! My phone has latest 14s from and I have installed Google play and,twrp and root.The problem seems to be gone if i change network type to 3g.Any ideas?
I have figured out that when in 4G the phone constantly loosing signal and finds it again,that is why is dropping incoming calls,also the 4G speed is low compared with other phones which are side by side
hi i too have similar problem with constant signal switching and even disconnections
any fix for this?
I have searched everywhere and didn't find any fix,someone said that he has put his sim in tray 2 and things are better.
this is what i have done so far...
-got a replacement sim, placed it in sim2
-flashed latest stock from letv
-flashed back to CUOCO v23
-installed v24, v25 updates
so far no too bad its getting better day by day guess i'll ride it out see how it goes
I believe that maybe it is a problem with the band's.Here in Greece we have LTE in 800,1900 and 2600 MHz and the phone has problem.The provider use different bands in different areas.Some areas covered with 2 bands simultaneously.The x820 has limited band support compared with x821 (India version) so I believe the phone can't switch because doesn't support all of them.
i think u may be right, it wasnt happening as much at home as i may have only locked on to one tower, but at work in the cbd its crazy, does seem like its arguing with the radio bands with it constantly switching around, hopefully they'll release a port of the indian rom for the x820 like they did with the 1s, its getting pretty annoying

i jus forced it to use 3G only n seem stable so far, i dont need 4g/lte at work anyways lol, this is what i did
-in engineering menu put it as CDMA only
-put network priority to 3G(this will not work without putting it the CDMA first)
-turn off ENHANCED 4G mode
so far full reception in 3g and no dropouts/disconnections

Hi bro, u also from singapore? i am planning to buy this phone in a day or so. Want to make sure there is no signal issue. From the specs, it has 2/3 lte bands.
im from Australia bud i had the letv 1s before and had no issues with signal only now with the max2
oh an confirmed band 3, as when it did decide to connect to 4g it was using BAND 3
Same here in Netherlands, very annoying.. Any good fix for this?

Probably some sort of software issue regarding the 3g network, because when set on 3g priority the signal switching on and off like crazy. Have anyone tried to turn of data? And we who live in the western world have a huge 2g and 3g network that we still use for calls. Not like China or India who jumped right onto the higher speeds. I mean if you buy a phone direct from one of the carriers in your country you will have a device that is optimized for that network. U will not if you import from China regardless full band spec. We have to hope for a fix for next update.

I have the same problem in Belgium. How fix the issue?
My x820 le max 2 works absolutely perfect with the 4g here in the Netherlands, as it supports almost all bands worldwide. It almost switches back to 3g.
Nobody can help us?
Heyyo, sorry for very late reply... have any of you tested with the latest modem firmware files flash via TWRP?
The very latest is "MODEM_446D_V.00050" which is from the developer branch, or you can try out "MODEM_CN_26S_05.09_V.00033"
Here's where you can download them from (might want to use your favorite website translator)

[Resolved] Every custom ROM has LTE signal drop

Every custom ROM for Redmi Note 4 SD has a bug that is making LTE signal disappear, you can verify it by opening signal info in settings.
You can see that the dBm signal stay at normal value but "asu" value is constantly spiking to "99" which causes signal indicator to show no signal for brief moment.
This happens for every ROM that is not based on MIUI.
Does anyone know what is the cause of it? We have sources released, is this a kernel issue or something else? It cannot be modem firmware since we are using same as MIUI. Can this be diagnosed/fixed ?
I remember it was the same few months ago, and still nothing has changed. I think it's the biggest issue and im wondering if anyone is trying to work on it.
Edit:
Best explanation: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=76811230&postcount=157
I will mark this as resolved.

I think latest LOS has this fix approximately a few weeks ago? Have you tested?

I tested lineage-14.1-20170810-nightly-mido-signed few days ago, bug is still here.
Does it actually lose signal or is it just a visual problem?
Might be a carrier problem, currently staying at a flat 49-50 in Singapore on Singtel.

Watch the signal for 5-10 minutes, it will drop.
yeah.. completely agree with op.
Is this fixed or still there?

You need to enable LTE and Data.

I don't understand your reply.
LTE and data are of course always enabled on my phone.
The only moments where I lost LTE signal is when I drive and arrive at a place where there is no LTE signal.

Yeah. It can be solves, if it's showing wrong signal level
This doesn't look like a cosmetic defect. I was on MIUI Nougat and didn't face any issues with signals. After coming to RR Nougat, I can see frequent fluctuations in network. Lesser speeds, much less consistent connectivity. I have tried changing the sim, compared with a phone running MIUI on the same sim, there is an undeniable fluctuation, with intermittent loss of data. This seems to happen only when data is enabled.

Yes, worth mentioning is that the issue is with LTE (4G) with Data enabled, i didn't noticed any signal issues or disconnections using 3G with Data enabled. Someone smarter should look into this.

Keep losing signal

Hi, I have X829 I have tried diffrent roms and flashing different modem files (some are better then others) but I constantly lose network conection. Does anyone have any ideas what to do

Which ROM are you using?
Right now I am on 28s-ARoMA Installer Edition(20171027) from CrisBalGreece
That's the same one I'm using, along with the 466 developer modem firmware, and my signal is steady, Did you dirty install over a previous version or did a clean install? Maybe a clean install can help
The x829 doesn't support band 20. Swedish telecom operators are also using this band for lte. I'm not aware how intense they do though.

Are you using a MVNO (Mobile Virtual Network Operator)? You know, one mobile company that relies on another one's network. In that case, you may also need to activate data roaming in order to get data connection. Also, you should check whether you APN settings are ok.
If you get no connection at all, rather than get 2G or 3G, but not 4G, then I don't think it's a modem or band issue, but a SIM setup issue. Check your settings with your provider.

Low Jio network coverage on custom Roms

Hey all. This is a peculiar one. Bought the Poco a month back and really happy with community and the support.
Got the bootloader unlock and flashed a couple of custom roms including LOS, syberia,omni etc
All was great but only issue i face was low network coverage. No matter whatever i was,i will get 1-2 bars max. With stock room, its full coverage at those places.
Not sure what going on but I'm back to stock.
Will be happy to check if someone has an idea on what's going on.

Probly a difference in the visual representation rather than the actual signal strength in db

I have confirmed the same from the *#4636 menu and see the signal strength is way too less with custom roms

any help regarding signal dropping issue on 9.5.9

I have been using latest beta Rom 9.5.9, severe signal dropping issue, switched to H+, then terrible internet speed, anyway I am using Airtel, tested with mi A1 found no issue with sim .

Using Jio and doesn't have any such issue. But I have noticed one thing. Internet speed becomes slow sometimes even with 4G+ sign. It looks as if miui throttles internet speed occasionally. But overall, I am getting quite good network reception.

Don't know if this was for the same reason, but I was experiencing signal drops but only when I was home. i think it was because of wifi calling. Disabling wifi calling and voice over LTE improved the situation. Again, Signal was fine when I was outside. Only when I was home. Use the following codes (in phone app) to switch between turning them on and off. Let us know how it goes.
*#*#86583#*#* (volte)
*#*#869434#*#* (vowifi)*

Thanks for the update. Try flashing the entire firmware maybe?. After flashing firmware, supposedly rebooting into recovery and then into system works better.
